I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Oracle (Bengaluru) in Jan 2021
Interview
5 rounds of interview on one day. They call it oracle loop. Interviewed for oci group. All rounds involved some coding and then some discussions. HR is pathetic though. Dont even have decency to let candidate know the result. But then its the situation with most of the HRs in India. Dont know why indian HRs are so bad. Looks like they are taught to be like this in companies . I hope this culture changes
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Oracle
Interview
1st Round - Zoom Call.
Two people were there. The first person(she) sounded clear, The other person(he) don't have any idea about the questions, he is asking.
He doesn't know what is concurrency, just throwing or trying to prove what he solved. Not listening or not even able to understand the technology terms (lol). I won't even consider him as high school student, but he is a principle engineer in Oracle.
But she sounded clear, asked two easy question, was able to crack in less time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Find Linked list is palindrome or not, was able to crack with array (in place of stack, basically same).
/**
* Q1. Write the code for the following pseudocode and explain how it work
* Initialize:
* max_so_far 0 max_ending_here 0 // initialized to zero
* Loop for each element of the array // integer array, iterating over the array, 0 < arr <1000
* (a) max_ending_here = max_ending_here + a[i] // counting the array values on every iteration, 1, 2, 3, 4, -11 => 1, 3, 6, 10, -1
* (b) if (max_ending_here < 0) max_ending_here = 0 // 0
* (c) if (max_so_far < max_ending_here) max_so_far = max_ending_here // 1, 3, 6, 10 => 10
*
* return max_so_far
*/
Both are easy questions
